GOAL:
How many clients can be handled by one AppServer agent?
GOAL:
How many users can be serviced by one AppServer agent?
FACT(s) (Environment):
All Supported Operating Systems
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x
FIX:
It is not possible for Progress to provide an accurate answer to this question as it is dependant on many factors, some of which are:
Machine spec
Network spec
Machine load
Network congestion
The mode the AppServers run in (state aware/reset, stateless, statefree)
Whether the clients bind to agents and/or hold state
The time each request takes to run
The number of requests per client
Whether the database tuned.
There are likely other factors that have not been mentioned.
AppServer agents could service one to potentially hundreds of users, it greatly depends on how they are being used and the environment.
Load testing should be performed to determine the capacity within the application and environment.
